Selective brain cooling in Arabian oryx (Oryx leucoryx): a physiological mechanism for coping with aridity?
Selective brain cooling is a thermoregulatory effector proposed to conserve body water and, as such, may help artiodactyls cope with aridity. We measured brain and carotid blood temperature, using implanted data loggers, in five Arabian oryx (Oryx leucoryx) in the desert of Saudi Arabia. On average, brain temperature was 0.24±0.05°C lower than carotid blood temperature for four oryx in April. S...
متن کاملSeasonal variation in energy expenditure, water flux and food consumption of Arabian oryx Oryx leucoryx.
We report on the energy expenditure and water flux, measured in the laboratory and in the field, of the Arabian oryx Oryx leucoryx, the largest desert ruminant for which measurements of the field metabolic rate of free-living individuals have been made using doubly labeled water. Prior to extirpation of this species in the wild in 1972, conservationists sequestered a number of individuals for c...
متن کاملSuspected Congenital Centronuclear Myopathy in an Arabian‐cross Foal
A 6-week-old, Arabian-cross male foal was referred to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital at the Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine for a 1-week history of progressive weakness and intermittent right thoracic limb lameness. The foal had a normal birth, was healthy, had been active, and had not exhibited any abnormalities of gait before presentation. The current owner had acqu...
متن کاملSerological survey for bovine bacterial and viral pathogens in captive Arabian oryx (Oryx leucoryx Pallas, 1776).
Tests for antibodies to bovine bacterial and viral pathogens were conducted on 239 sera from 128 Arabian oryx (Oryx leucoryx) from seven locations (Taif, Riyadh and Mahazat as Said, Saudi Arabia; San Diego, United States of America [USA]; Shaumari, Jordan; Qatar; and Bahrain). No antibodies to Pasteurella multocida type E or epizootic haemorrhagic disease 1 virus were found. Antibodies to Bruce...
متن کاملFemale reproductive tract anatomy of the endangered Arabian oryx (Oryx leucoryx) in Jordan.
Female reproductive anatomy of the Arabian oryx is unknown. In this study, reproductive tracts of seven female Arabian oryx (aged 2 to 7 years) were examined to characterize their reproductive anatomy. Observations and measurements were obtained in situ from dead animals during necropsy. Animals were allocated into two groups: cycling (n = 3; follicles or corpora lutea present) and not-cycling ...
